Default Where is VH-EBJ?

Hi guys,

Ever since VH-EBJ had the little steering incident about a week back now, I have not seen it in service on the usual transcontinental flights. VH-EBK is now on the PER-MEL flights and random A330-300s have been doing the PER-SYD flights in place of EBJ.

As it has been a week already, does anybody know what has happened with VH-EBJ as the problem does seem rather serious considering the plane has not been flying for a week already?

Cheers,
Wenglock.

Morning all,

Up until yesterday it was sitting outside the QF hangers in Melbourne. It hadn't moved for 5 days.

They had five aircraft parked in MEL on Sunday, that IMO isnt a good way to operate a business.
